Question

If a teacher's guide to a popular SAT workbook is to be printed using a special type of paper, the guide must have at most 400 pages. If the publishing company charges 1 cent per page printed, what is the largest price, in dollars, that can be charged to print 20 copies of the workbook using the special paper?

Answer 1

$80

Explanation:

To find the largest price, assume that all 20 copies of the workbook will have 400 pages.

Since the company charges 1 cent per page, this means each workbook will cost 400 cents. This is equivalent to 4 dollars.

Find the total cost by multiplying this by 20:

20(4)

= 80

So, the largest price to print 20 copies is $80
